It boasts an award-winning Farmers’ Market and was recently named one of the best places to live by The Sunday Times, which described it as “chic.” The area offers excellent educational opportunities, including two grammar schools—Marling School for boys and Stroud High School for girls—as well as a selection of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, both state and independent.
